IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of a Century Ago. These Files Contain the Only Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange county in the Days of the Ploneers. 50 Years Ago July 10, 1888 The Board of Supervisors on Saturday granted the petition of citizens of Fairview School District, to be annexed to Anaheim District. Dr. J. S. Gardiner and Frank Moore went before the board and spoke in behalf of the change and Dr. Kellogg offered a remonstrance. A meeting of the qualified electors of Fairview school district will be held at the Anaheim school house on August 6 to dispose of the property of Fairview school district and for the purpose of purchasing a site and erecting a new school house in this district. Fredrick McGregor commenced suit in the Superior court last week against Fritz Anschlag, convicted of the murder of Mr. and Mrs. Hitchcock to recover $1820 alleged to be due for services in defending him. The complaint alleges that the services were worth $2000 and that $180 has been paid on the account. An attachment was given Sheriff Kays to serve on the personal effects and money which Anschlag has in his possession. At the regular meeting of the Board No. 100 L.O.O. 25 Years Ago July 17, 1913 Two hundred seals, some of them of unusual size have adopted Bay City as their home and are responsible for the change of the name of the thriving south coast resort from Bay City to Seal Beach. These seals have been arriving in increasing numbers each year and have made their headquarters in a little inlet entering Alamitos bay at the north end of Bay City. At this point the new trestle connecting the Bay City branch of the Pacific Electric is being built, and in a few weeks through cars will be running from Long Beach to Seal Beach over this trestle. One of the incidents of the building of this trestle will be the creation of one or more rock islands near the shore where the seals may sun themselves, and the appointment of a seal keeper by the Pacific Electric railway company to see that the seals are properly fed and looked after. Many thousands of people have been drawn to the Cliff house at San Francisco on account of the seals that have made Seal Rocks, opposite the Cliff house famous the world over. There are more seals at Seal Beach than have been at the San Francisco seal rocks for some time. Mrs. Max Nebelung underwent Before the railroads were built here passengers between Los Angeles and San Diego were hauled in stage coaches drawn by four horses. The horses were changed at Capistrano and Anaheim. From the Seventeen Mile house now the site of La Mirada, to Los Angeles the horses were kept on the run, in order to cut down the time of transit. The change of horses in Anaheim was made at the Payne and Gaddy livery stable located on the west side of Los Angeles street between Center and Chartre streets. The old Planters hotel located at the corner of Centro and Los Angeles streets, was the stopping off place for many of the passengers who were hospitalized by the late John Fischer who conducted the hotel. This city was the terminus for several years after the railroad was built from Los Angeles. The late Dan Grey drove a stage from the Southern Pacific depot at We Anaheim to the Planters hotel carrying passengers. When business was brisk Dan kept two hours on the run to give his customers quick service. The late Cole Travis carried passengers from here to San Ana in his two-horse spring wagon. The terminal at Santa Ana was the Lehman hotel at Ma At the regular meeting of the Anaheim Lodge, No. 199, I. O. O. F., held Tuesday evening, July 17, the following officers were installed for the ensuing term by D. D. G. M. E. Wm. Champlin: N. G. J. H. Bullard, V. G. Samuel Hill, secretary, W. R. Harker; treasurer, J. P. Zeyn; Wm. M. Higgins; R. S., F. A. Korn. A caucus of Republicans was held last evening in the town hall for the purpose of electing delegates to the county convention, which meets in Los Angeles on the 26th instant. The ballot resulted: Richard Melrose 13, W. G. Potter 13, L. G. Graham 12, F. C. Smythe 12, Henry Kuchel 12, A. Goldwaite 11, Frank Ey 4. The first six gentlemen were declared elected. The Democratic procession and reception to Stephen M. White in Los Angeles on Saturday last was a grand affair. Several Democrats from Anaheim were in line and all pronounce it the largest demonstration of its kind ever held in the city. Mrs. R. Luedke and son, Adolph, will leave on the steamer City of Pueblo for San Francisco on the 23rd inst., on a visit. On Monday and Tuesday evenings a number of Anaheim people went to Santa Ana to hear the Syke opera company sing, "Mikado" and "Olivette." The singing was fair. The Wright bill will give us about five hundred inches more water in summer than we have at present. What man in the valley but considers it a very good thing. A. C. Curtice of Santa Ana will begin the removal of Mrs. Metz's buildings on the corner of Center and Los Angeles street tomorrow. The contract calls for the completion of the work by August 4th. The removal will be under the by the Pacific Electric railway company to see that the seals are properly fed and looked after. Many thousands of people have been drawn to the Cliff house at San Francisco on account of the seals that have made Seal Rocks, opposite the Cliff house famous the world over. There are more seals at Seal Beach than have been at the San Francisco seal rocks for some time. Mrs. Max Nebelung underwent a surgical operation for appendicitis at the Sisters hospital in Los Angeles one day last week. She is reported to be in excellent condition with every prospect of speedy recovery of her health. Frank Champlin and Miss Anna Laderat, of Otay were married in San Diego last week. They will make their home on North Los Angeles street. Mrs. Frank Shanley entertained the Ladies Euchre club at her home on South Lemon street on Thursday afternoon, when a very enjoyable session of the club was held. Mrs. C. F. Grim was awarded the first prize at progressive euchre, a silver bread tray. Mrs. Fred Rimpau took second prize, a half dozen linen handkerchiefs, and Mrs. Adolph Rimpau the consolation, an orange dish. Theo Ford, the well known southside nurseryman, was in town on Wednesday afternoon. Speaking of advance in Orange county reality values, he said that when he first located on his ranch near the river 20 years ago, it being then bare land, his taxes were $65. Last year his taxes were $785, and he is wondering if Assessor Sleeper is going to raise him this year. The organization of a mausoleum company, which has been under consideration for a couple of months, was effected last week with a board of directors composed of Max Nebelung, Dr. C. W. Harvey, F. C. Krause, L. O. Culp, L. E. Miller and R. J. Laidlaw in control. A splendid mausoleum costing in the neighborhood of $50,000 will be constructed in the northwest corner of the Anaheim cemetery and work will begin on it by the first of August. More than half the crypt within the structure have been sold. The company has offices over Dickel's Mrs. Arnold, returned this week from fortnight's tour of Yellowstone Park.

The buildings will be set back 12 feet 5 inches from Center and 40 feet back from Los Angeles street, to make room for the brick building which Mrs. Metz will erect. The houses moved will each be separated, with convenient space between them, and will be thoroughly overhauled and repainted.

Los Angeles St. Anaheim, California San Juan Capistrano Ranchers Find Bur Clover Valuable Crop Two progressive farmers near San Juan Capistrano, Oscar Rosenbaum and C. R. Brown, report that bur clover is a valuable plant to grow on soils that have a tendency to pack and crack. Both farmers have found that areas on which good stands of bur clover have been grown as cover crops and turned under for several years are so noticeably mellowed that one can tell by the sound of the tractor and by the actual power used when the plow or disk runs into a bur clover area. Heavy clay or adobe soils present difficult tillage problems and increase equipment and cultivation costs when not properly mellowed by cover cropping. Growing bur clover as a cover crop and turning it under will mellow the soil and put in better condition for tillage operations as well as for protecting crops. "The use of bur clover on farms for checking erosion and increasing soil fertility is highly recommended and is gaining widespread use," stated Charles W. Wilson, project manager, soil conservation service. Bur clover makes a desirable cover crop because of such outstanding characteristics as it is a legume and adds nitrogen to the soil, reseeds itself prolifically, dies down early in the summer and offers no competition to growing crops, grows close to the ground even in shady places and helps to prevent erosion, requires little or no seedbed preparation, and is easily turned under or disced, thus adding humus to the soil. Costs Reported On Tree Removal Commercial tree-pulling, a somewhat new industry for California, has been made the subject of a cost study by the agricultural extension service of the University of California. The service points out that all tree-pulling is not due to adverse economic conditions, but that in a number of cases it follows a sound policy of crop diversification and rotation. Due to the flue-carrying from here to Santa Ana terminal at Santa Ana Lehman hotel at Main Street. Commercial tree-pulling, a somewhat new industry for California, has been made the subject of a cost study by the agricultural extension service of the University of California. The service points out that all tree-pulling is not due to adverse economic conditions, but that in a number of cases it follows a sound policy of crop diversification and rotation. Due to the fluctuating market conditions that obtain even in normal times, growers sometimes find that they have overextended themselves as far as orchard plantings are concerned, and they therefore follow a natural trend toward other crops. The costs are computed upon an acre containing 20 trees. The data covered deciduous orchards in the San Joaquin and Sacramento valleys largely. The average cost for pulling in the eight counties included in the study was $8.44 an acre. Brush disposal and cutting the wood for fireplace or other use, cost an additional $15.80, on the average, while the preparation of the land for subsequent crops came to $7.31 an acre, or a total of $31.55 an acre for all three costs. There are some striking variations from these averages, the actual grand total per acre ranging from $11.95 to $60.34. These variations were due to size of trees, equipment differences, type and condition of the soil and efficiency of crew organization. Health Association Board has Meeting The regular monthly meeting of the Orange County Tuberculosis & Health association, Ltd., was held at the executive office, 112 Fifth street, Santa Ana; Monday of this week.

Supervisors Act as Equalization Board In addition to the state board equalization which functions year around, at this time there are 58 county boards of equalization operating in California, a condition somewhat confusing to average citizen, William G. Cornell, member of the state board from this district points out. Supervisors of each county act as a board of equalization on assessment matters within their counties and under the state law must sit as such between the first and third Mondays in July. They are empowered to raise or lower individual assessments, a power which the state board does not assess. The latter body may, however, raise or lower the entire county assessment roll. It also describes the rules under which county boards of equalization County Information Sought by Tourists More tourists are getting interested in Orange county through All-Year club advertising, V. D. Johnson, county publicity manager, announced late last week. During the first six months of the year, 8763 requests for information about the county were received. Each inquirer received the 24-page county publicity booklet and a folder map. Follow-up post cards invited more specific inquiries, and many letters were answered with the particular information requested. Function. Property owners not satisfied with their assessments have the right to appeal to their county boards for adjustment.
